@MilsCookie I can only say how much admiration I have for you under the circumstances your in, you have the prospect of actually having to walk out of hospital without those girls if they do come those two weeks, even a week earlier. Babies can be born at full term and have breathing problems or all sorts of issues, as well as being born at 30 weeks and only need a week help with breathing and absolutely fine. So there is always unknown factors of worry with every pregnancy, every labour. But you are living day to day with your pregnancy now, every night in bed much be such a relief to just silently say 'one more day done'. Im on tenter hooks for you about the next few weeks too! I think your going to make it to 34, I really do, I will wish it into being hopefully 💗

@inahaze - symptoms come and go throughout pregnancy in my experience. Don’t panic! X

Congratulations on your baby girl @scrumdiddly123!

I need someone to either talk me down or give it to me straight please...
I did my second CB Digital today having got 1-2 weeks on Weds. I was hoping for progression but it said 1-2 again. I know that we only DTD once in my fertile window this month (DH was away, I was ill etc) on 12th Oct, so should be 2 and a half weeks from conception. Worried now.

It was the middle of the day rather than FMU and when it came to it, I didn’t have much wee (sorry TMI!) and only got a bit on the stick - could this affect it?

Wish I hadn’t done it at all now. 😞

@scrumdiddly123 awww two of each is amazing!! You must be thrilled 😍 love that you decided to find out in the end haha - what a lovely surprise for your DH!

@Chickoletta I've read that the CB digital ones with the weeks are notorious for giving false results and causing unnecessary panic in women who are having perfectly normal pregnancies. even if you DTD on 12th oct, you may not have conceived on that day. Do you know when you ovulated? Also if you didn't use FMU then the HCG concentration may not have been as high. Try not to worry, you are pregnant and that is a fact!! I wouldn't do anymore of those tests cos often they just cause more anxiety than they're worth! Have you got any appointments booked with EPAU to get an early scan? X

Ladies, can we do bump update?!

Curious to see the term bumps tbh...😇😊

@AlviesMam how are you doing?

Thanks @Chickoletta and @SunnySideUp2020! We are so close in dates aren’t we! My 20 week scan is 20th Nov, will be 20 weeks exactly! When’s yours?
@chickoletta I know it’s really hard but try not to stress about the tests, especially digis! It might have just been that it wasn’t FMU. I did 4 tests with this pregnancy and then stopped which was a minor miracle as with my miscarriages I did about a million! You’re definitely pregnant so try to just focus on that 💖

Thank you @MilsCookie. I’ve read that too. It’s hard not to think the worst when you’ve been through a MMC but I know you’re right. Just got to carry on for now. Still pregnant and still feeling pregnant. My main symptom is needing to wee constantly, which had drastic consequences today - went out for a woodland walk with DH and kids and had to do a wild wee. On the way home, felt an excruciating pain in my nethers, jumped out of the car to find a sleepy wasp inside my trousers! He has stung me three times at the top of my thigh and in my groin - yeeeow!

@Chickoletta I know it's hard but try to think positive. This is a different egg/sperm, different baby etc. It doesn't mean it's going to happen again 😘 and ouchy about the wasp!!! You must have had a real shock when you saw that haha!!

Here is my 30+5 twin bump. The skin at the top of the bump feels soooo stretched and sore and almost burnt like?! Does anyone else have that?

You look so great @MilsCookie 😍 I get days where my bump hurts and smothering it in moisturiser is the only thing that helps...our poor tummys are going through a lot!
